I vote we take 90% of the war budget, give 2/3s toward universal healthcare and the other 1/3 toward nasa.

Pretty sure 2/3rds of the usa military budget is way way more than health care in the us would cost. us military budget is... stupidly huge.
-
Healthcare is 1/6th of our economy altogether, war department is likely 1 trillion a year(some hidden), our gdp is around 17 trillion, so no
-
Just did some research, and yeah you're right. however i'd prob prioritise education at same level as healthcare. Should be free.
-
Free college would be about 60 billion a year, nothing at all, less than what they increased the war budget by just this year.

What does that translate to in absolute dollars adjusted for inflation? The budget is a lot larger than it used to be.
-
1969 NASA would get $28.9b of a $5.895t budget. Today NASA gets $19.2b of a $3.999t budget (Very rough inflation increase of ~6.8x)
-
I think you may have GDP there instead of the total outlays. I believe the budget for 1969 was closer to 867b adjusted
-
Hah you are right $3t is outrageous hahha
-
Haha no problem! Still seems crazy, but I guess any budget on that scale would be to some degree!
